It’s so inspiring to hear of the cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason (of Meghan & Harry’s Royal Wedding fame) to be going back to study after performing at that extravagant wedding. I feel now inspired to pursue both music and study but I’ll have to make time. I used to be part of a community orchestra as cellist ( and earlier as saxophonist) till Covid hit home. I’m busy now with full time work (typing) so my fingers are otherwise occupied and my arms tired at the days end. I would like to go back. The orchestra members say they keep a chair out for me waiting till I return. There’s nothing better than feeling wanted and part of the music flow & ebb. Ps. I play just for the term to feel with and play the music week by week is fun however I’ve got to work up to concert standard where I’m brave enough to play when a crowd is watching, but also to bother enough about it so that competing events in my calendar can be missed as I want to play the music enough. Music can change the feel of a place and of a relationship. I want to include music when I’m cooking or socialising for instance.
